Happy Friday to you and welcome to Cynthia’s Creative Corner! Today’s card was made with weddings in mind but it would also be a great card for an anniversary.

White and silver are the theme for this card and I just had to add that beautiful dove from the Serene Garden bundle. I wanted to try something a little different for embossing, so combined a little of the White Emboss powder with Silver Emboss powder to highlight the dove. The measurements I used are about 1 tsp. white with about 1/2 tsp of the silver. Love the way it turned out.

The layout for this card came from Freshly Made Sketches which is perfect to highlight both the dove and simple greeting! Check out the sketch.

Here’s a list of all of the products that I used. If you find that you need any of these products, just click on the picture to go directly to my Online Store.

Today’s card shows off the very cute Animal Outing Bundle (available in clear mountand wood mount) and matching designer paper. I giggled the whole time while creating this card!

We have two giraffes standing together here, awwww! I cut out the bottom image from the Animal Expedition designer series paper, covered it with a piece of Window Sheet and then cut a scalloped frame. The Layering Squares framelits dies are great for this. Of course the frame is a rectangle so I used the Paper Snips to cut it to size.

Then the Leaf Ribbon came into play….when using this ribbon, the Mini Glue Dots are your best friend!

I recently purchased the Flourishing Phrases stamp set because I love those flourishes of flowers and leaves. So, I used Versamark and Clear Emboss powder to make them stand out on the background! Then all it took was some die cutting with the Sunshine Wishes Thinlits Dies and we have a great card for an anniversary or a wedding, or a just because I love you!

Hi, welcome and thanks so much for visiting! You are the best and that is exactly what today’s card says!

I used two new sets, Serene Garden Bundle and the Very Vintage Host set – both of which are in the new 2018-2019 Catalogue!

The Paper Players posted a Clean & Simple challenge which wants us to use “Blooms” as the theme. So, that lovely stylized flower from the Serene Garden bundle was my choice. I spritzed a little water over the Prussian Blue Brusho®Crystal Colour, and stamped the outline with the new InColor, Blueberry Bushel. Then it was just a matter of cutting them out with the coordinating Garden Scene Framelits Dies! The greeting comes from the Very Vintage Host stamp set.

When I saw the Serene Garden Bundle on the Demonstrator pre-order list, I fell in love! Of course it was one of the first items on my list!

The images have matching Framelits that emboss as well as cut out! I also had fun with colouring with some new Colour Markers! How does Balmy Blue, Soft Sea Foam and Call Me Clover sound? They are 3 of the new colours that adorn that beautiful bird!

I can hardly wait until you can sit down with the new 2018-2019 Annual Catalogue and enjoy all of the beautiful new items! If you are a present customer of mine, your catalogue will be on its way to you very soon! If you are new to me and not attached to another Demonstrator, Contact Me and I’ll get a catalogue to you!

Here’s the short list of some of the products I used for today’s card. (NOTE: I can’t show all of the details for the new items just yet so they are not on the list)

Happy Friday and today I’m showcasing a Retiring stamp set that will truly light up someone’s day!

The set is Marquee Messages and it’s perfect for a “you’re awesome” card with it’s lighted arrow! I used versamark to stamp the image, added some Copper Embossing Powder and heat set it! Then, I stamped the word “awesome” cut out the whole thing. The circle was cut separately and then attached to the sign before it was popped up with stamping’ dimensionals on the card front.

Since the beautiful Eastern Palace Specialty Designer paper is also retiring, I had to use a bit of it to set off the background for this “lit up” card!
